Montel, North American pioneer in the high-density storage industry for fixed and mobile systems, is pleased to announce its new alliance with Viking Metal Cabinet, Chicago, the industry leader in high quality cabinetry.

From Art racks manufactured by Montel, to Zoology cabinets manufactured by Viking, this new alliance permits Montel to become a “one-stop-shopping” source for storage solutions in the museum market and other related markets involving specialized and customized storage needs.

The experience of both companies combined equals over 130 years of providing storage solutions for unique needs. The marriage of design capabilities, marketing and distribution allows both companies to offer expanded capabilities and price advantages to the museum world. They are made to fit perfectly with each other. Without a doubt, this combined expertise bodes well for future museum customers.

Reactions from the industry have been swift and positive. As mentioned by one collections manager of a major facility in Washington, DC, “Congratulations! You have managed to pull off a real coup, which should be of great benefit to both companies. Nobody in the industry can offer high quality compactor systems like Montel and nobody builds cabinets as well as Viking”.
